You Paid the Ransom: 12 Months Later

Unintended consequences. No reset button.

You decided to pay the ransom.
Your systems are back online.
But your toughest battles? They’re only just beginning.

Customers are watching. Regulators are asking questions. Attackers know you’ll pay again.

Twelve months later, your business looks very different.

This is an unfiltered play-by-play of what really happens after ransom payment.

You’ll sit in the war room as leaders wrestle with the fallout, from the first days of “recovery” to the slow burn of reputational damage, compliance risk and future attacks.
